Steve Fusco grew up in Connecticut, raised by a single mom and a solid support system—but teenage trouble sent him to military school. In college, experimentation turned into using and selling drugs, a slide into addiction, and multiple arrests. After failing to get clean, Steve was sentenced to 2 years in Connecticut state prison—the wake-up call that changed everything. Inside, he rebuilt from the ground up. Today he’s sober, a successful business owner, and on a mission to show what redemption really looks like.
